Student Research Expo
Student Research Expo Winners for 2020:
The 2020 Student Research Exposition was conducted as an online event October 20 - 23.

The awards for outstanding entries as selected by our panel of judges are:
Undergraduate category
- Garrison Cox (mentor: Tanya Miura), Attenuation of mouse hepatitis virus induced acute respiratory distress syndrome like disease via rhinovirus coinfection in a murine model

Graduate category

Thank you to all of our expo participants, and to their faculty mentors as well. Finally, thank you to our distinguished panel of judges for their careful work evaluating the entries. See you at next year's expo!
